SIN CITY



"Sin City" the song playing under the Lost Vegas images this week is by a German punk rock band called "The Radioactives", and the "Lost Vegas Art Project" has now gone International.
I get a real kick out of trying to find the appropriate "quotes" to match the sense of the song that the viewer is hearing well as matching the sense of the images? After I had chosen the quotes that I wanted to use for this song I googled to try and find the lyrics to the song. Here they are:

Sin City:

"A run down man once showed me this place
That l’ll now show to you.
You gotta have some action, you gotta feel the power.
And never regret the fun!
You ought to booze, right now you ought to f***.
Just play with the chicks.
The cuties don’t know who I am.
Satanic Blood runs down my veins.

Chorus:
Committing sins won’t be in vain. I’ll surely get what I deserve.
But before I’ll die, I’ll share everything. I’m alive! – In Sin City.

As long as I’m here, I can feel the pulse pounding.
I can feel the heat of the night.
The heroes have died mistaken, anyway.
And the bad ones have won.
The city is awake, no doubt, it’s so moving.
The good guys to the bad.
Can you blame me? Am I guilty?
Listen! “Life was built on a sin!”
by The Radiactives

Great song ! Unnerving really?

Now look and listen to it again...
